Sox trade Andrew Vaughn to acquire Aaron Civale
John McEnroe? Tiger Woods suppressing his entire life until it all blew up on him? Football definitely relies a lot more on emotions than the other Big 3, but baseball in particular. Paul O'Neill was the one guy who always annoyed me the most, but most Yankees' fans loved him. Many Latin American players in the 50s and 60s like Clemente and Marichal were famous for being "too hot blooded."

2025 MLB season...catch-all for non-Sox, non AL-Central
https://brewerfanatic.com/forums/topic/45638-are-the-brewers-as-good-as-their-mlb-leading-record/&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwiPu7W4-NGOAxXFnGoFHUn5FrkQFnoECAQQAg&usg=AOvVaw3cfazc7VGMsX6kN5zOHfMG Brewers have to be early favorite for best org in baseball. Just look at the relatively tepid numbers for their 1-6 hitters... Pitching geniuses? Beyond Miz and Woodruff and Peralta and Priester and Q. Around 15 pitchers this season with 115+ ERA+ numbers is crazy....has to be one of the top 2-3 bullpens in the game. Mid level payrolls/strong attendance/one of the smallest tv markets and they almost always make the right calls trading vets at near highs. https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/MIL/2025.shtml

Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
24. Luis Robert Jr., OF, Chicago White Sox Chance of trade: 50% Robert has been extremely unlucky with ball-in-play results this season, but that has begun to turn around recently. He remains a strong defender and baserunner, with a career-high 24 steals already. But the .201/.289/.342 line is unsightly, and his trade value has cratered over the past two seasons. He has a pair of $20 million-a-year club options that an acquiring team would be hesitant to exercise absent a turnaround. Finding a match with a team willing to give up more for Robert's upside rather than his productivity could be challenging. Best fits: San Diego, Philadelphia, New York Mets, San Francisco Houser 32nd Notice Soroka and Moncada at very back end of rankings... https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45568636/ranking-mlb-trade-deadline-candidates-alex-bregman-jarren-duran Looks like Kwan Lugo Bubic Duran Jax all going will further weaken AL Central...

We have hope, we got The Pope!
Remember buying a John Paul II comic book...but it disappeared in the annals of time, unfortunately. On a positive note, those old baseball cards were not thrown out at least.

AND THAT'S A 4 IN A FUCKING ROW 8-3 WHITE SOX WINNER
Let’s see how they do without Tauchman Robert Houser/Civale Wilson Gilbert Altavilla etc. Note: please play Teel/Quero together more

AND THAT'S A 4 IN A FUCKING ROW 8-3 WHITE SOX WINNER
Fortunately just A's Pirates Nats to contend with for worst record with Rockies locked out this year...and A's can't get Top 6 pick three consecutive years from what it seems. Kind of opposite of last season...this year Pythagorean has them underperforming by six full games, should theoretically be 42-59. Angels, Orioles +5 Blue Jays +6 Rays -5 Braves, Yankees, Rangers, White Sox -6

Robert has more right now due to defense and base running. At least for large market teams. Sosa is Morel Lite.

You should hear TB announcers getting frustrated with Baz...WC chances fading a bit.

Robert 880 ops last thirty games coming into tonight...nearly 1.500 ops last seven.

Sox at Rays, 7/21 6:35 CDT
With an assist from Burke... How many starters have been pulled in the fifth inning with an 8-2 lead and chance for an individual win?
-
Sox at Rays, 7/21 6:35 CDT
Too careful with Caminero...can easily lead to a three run homer. Or not. LHBers can't touch Gilbert. Wilson coming in...

Sox at Rays, 7/21 6:35 CDT
Split seems fairest..can't be two each logically. Both starters go exactly four IP lol.

Sox at Rays, 7/21 6:35 CDT
The difference is Floyd was a top prospect and Burke kind of quietly snuck in there with his stuff for a lower round draft pick.
-
Sox at Rays, 7/21 6:35 CDT
Burke c'mon. Venable gave him all the chances un the world to get the win but leadoff walk doomed him.
